Talked to a local on 19 about 10 miles away. Forgot I was running barefoot. Not bad for 1.5w!!!

I believe I talked to you briefly on channel 28... 553, Cheesecracker in the 18 wheeler just outside of Little Rock. At least that's where I was earlier. Have a hard time getting called on 28 with just a 100 watts. But I made 4 or 5 contacts on 28. And quite a few on 38 LSB.

I think you are right Codeman. Looked back at my scribbled while talking notes and had some Arkansas in there.

It was a skipshooter 357 from North Carolina I talked to. Just a quick contact. You had someone asking about your antenna if that was you.

I was taking a nap when the skip broke my squelch. I kept increasing it a little more to cop some more z's. Like a snooze alarm, I finally gave in about the 3rd of 4th time and got up. Squelch was near its end. Normally I like hearing the radio while I sleep, but the XLY likes to holler from a distance whenever she wants something done. "I'm sorry, I thought I was hearing the radio" excuse doesn't work with her.

There’s an entire world inside that post.

38lsb sounded like Ch6 at full roar yesterday afternoon. There was a really triggered Canadian going back be forth with the local knuckle heads in NYC.

I turned the radio back on about midnight last night. Skip still rolling.

hmmm...not sure. May have been me...May not have been me. I do go by 357 when talking on AM regardless of local or DX. I often talk skip on a 1/2 wave horizontal dipole.

Skipshooter 357 is in Polk county, NC. Handle is Tinman.

Not me for sure. Davidson County here. Thanks for the info.

There is also at least one more “357” in NC.

November Charlie #1...Butch. He is original founder of NC SSB group decades ago. Lives 40 miles North of me.

I could hear a little skip in the NW this morning but it seems to be dying out pretty quick.
